The experience

About this day out

The Graves Gallery, the Art Deco home of Sheffield's visual art collection, sits above the Central Library on Surrey Street, just across from the Millennium Gallery. Its displays explore colour and form, identity, portraiture and the human figure through paintings, sculpture, photography, video and works on paper by artists including David Hockney, Bridget Riley, JMW Turner and Marc Quinn, alongside regularly changing exhibitions. Some collection displays are currently closed for essential maintenance while investigative works take place.
